Gates is less intelligent than I thought. Some programming knowledge, one enormous contractual coup with IBM, and a lot of talent around him seems to sum it up...

Gates is less intelligent than I thought.

The biggest factor was he was in the right place at the right time. All the technology and innovation he bought from others.

I used to think he was a balanced, sane person too.

The elitist “smart people” put all their eggs in the global warming basket. They are not so smart.

If Gates has technology to replace the use of oil, lets see it. Otherwise he can sit down and shut up until he does.
